Hi! Wilfred,

   Well, I managed to screw up even some of the simplest things but eventually   
   got something like a normal echomail scan out...   
      
   GoldEd created the expected echomail.jam file, containing...   
      
   --- 8< ---   
   /opt/ftn/fido/msgbase/fec1e5dd 8020    
   --- 8< ---   
      
   In the areas.bbs file that file is identified as...   
      
   --- 8< ---   
   !/opt/ftn/fido/msgbase/fec1e5dd WIN95                3:640/384   
   --- 8< ---   
      
   Then a sendmail script called for a 'fmail scan' which scanned _every_ message   
   area: netmail, HMB & then JAM.  It seemed to completely ignore the   
   echomail.jam file except when it came time to delete it.   
      
   This was kinda awkward so I re-ran the same actions.  Same result.  Oops.  ;-)   
      
   There must have been something else that I missed?  Do you have any   
   suggestions, please?   
      
   Cheers,   
   Paul.
